Description
APPARATUS AND SYSTEM FOR DATA COPY PROTECTION AND METHOD THEREOF
Technical Field
The present invention relates to an apparatus and system for data copy protection and a method thereof, and more particularly, to a method of preventing illegal data copying performed by a third party by adopting different encryption processes according to respective control modes based on control information of data copy protection.
Background Art
With the development of digital signal processing techniques, a variety of digital recording devices and recording media have been widely used. However, since digital data included in such devices and recording media can be repeatedly reproduced and copied, rights of copyright holders, authorized dealers and the like of a variety of contents such as music and movies may be infringed by the distribution of illegally copied recording media. Recently, various methods including a method of using copy control information (hereinafter, referred to as "CCI") are introduced to prevent an illegal copy of such digital data. Generally, content providers add in advance designated copy requirements for contents. Therefore, even in case of network communications, there is a need for a sending part to exactly transfer the designated requirements to a receiving part. Accordingly, the CCI is used as copy requirements in the 5C Digital Transmission Content Protection (DTCP) system commonly proposed by five corporations. Such CCI information is represented by a 2-bit code, which can establish four different modes. FIG. 1 shows a conventional structure of CCI information. As shown in FIG. 1, a CCI code of '00' refers to a 'copy free' mode in which no encryption has been made and accordingly an audio/video (AN) stream can be freely copied without requiring any authentication or encryption process. A CCI code of '01' refers to a 'copy free but encrypted' mode in which an AN stream has been encrypted but it can be freely copied only by a device capable of decrypting the encrypted AN
stream. A CCI code of '10' refers to a 'copy one generation' mode in which copying is permitted only once while additional copying is prevented. Finally, a CCI code of 'I T indicates a 'no more copy or copy never' mode in which copying is not permitted. Where the encryption status represents an 'encrypted' state even though the types of CCI codes recorded in AN streams of contents are different from each other, the contents will be regarded as having been recorded using an identical encryption process and will be subjected to an identical decryption process. Thus, where the CCI information is illegally modified, contents that are normally prevented from being copied, i.e. have information of 'no more copy or copy never,' may be illegally copied. For example, where a CCI code is modified from the 'copy one generation' mode or the 'no more copy or copy never' mode to the 'copy free but encrypted' mode, contents may be easily decrypted since an identical encryption/decryption process has been applied thereto. Thus, illegal copies of the contents may be repeatedly made. Further, even when a CCI code is illegally modified from the 'no more copy or copy never' mode to the 'copy one generation' mode, an illegal copy of the contents may still be made.
Moreover, in the conventional art, where the encryption status of the content indicates an 'encrypted' state regardless of the importance of the content, an identical encryption/decryption process is applied to an AN stream of the content irrespective of a security level of the content. Thus, the security levels have no significance.
Furthermore, the conventional art does not have compliance rules to check whether a CCI code is valid upon implementation of a system. That is, an implemented hardware or software system is not forced to compare a recorded CCI code with an input data value. Accordingly, such a hardware or software system may not prevent unauthorized modification of the CCI code.

Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention
Hereinafter, an apparatus and system for data copy protection and a method thereof according to preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
By way of an example, the present invention will be described where data refers to contents including AN stream data and control information for copy protection refers to CCI.
FIG. 2 shows an encryption status and relevant encryption/decryption modes of AN stream data according to copy control information codes according to an embodiment of the present invention. According to an embodiment of the present invention, different encryption/decryption modes for contents are established to prevent illegal copying that may be realized by modification of CCI codes. A CCI code of '01 ' refers to a first mode representing 'copy free but encrypted,' a CCI code of '10' refers to a second mode representing 'copy one generation,' and a CCI code of ' 11 ' refers to a third mode representing 'no more copy or copy never.' FIG. 3 shows the configuration of a data encryption apparatus having a transmitting apparatus 300 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The transmitting apparatus 300 for data copy protection comprises a CCI code- determining unit 320, an encryption module 330 which encrypts AN stream data, and an AN stream transmitting unit 340 which transmits the encrypted or non- encrypted AN stream.
The CCI code-determining unit 320 determines which CCI code is added to the AN stream to encrypt contents 310. Where the determined CCI code is '00', i.e. 'copy free,' the AV stream does not pass through the encryption module 330 and is stored in a recording medium or transmitted through a transmission medium via the AN stream transmitting unit 340 without being encrypted by the encrypting module 330. Where the determined CCI code is one of '01', '10' and '11' representing 'copy free but encrypted,' 'copy one generation' and 'no more copy or copy never,' respectively, the AN stream of the contents is encrypted by the encryption module 330 by way of different encryption modes and stored in a recording medium or transmitted tlirough a transmission medium via the AN stream transmitting unit 340. That is, the AN stream is encrypted by encryption modules 331, 332 and 333 for the
first, second and third encryption modes in the encryption module 330 where the determined CCI codes are '01,' '10' and '11,' respectively.
FIG. 4 shows the configuration of a data decryption apparatus having a receiving apparatus 400 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The receiving apparatus 400 for data copy protection comprises a CCI code-checking unit 420, a decryption module 430 which decrypts an AV stream 410, and an AN stream-outputting unit 440 which outputs the decrypted or non-decrypted AN stream. The CCI code-checking unit 420 checks a CCI code held by the received AN stream 410. Where the CCI code of the AN stream is '00' representing 'copy free,' the AN stream is directly output via the AN stream-outputting unit 440 without passing through the decryption module 430. Where the CCI code is '01,' '10' and '11' representing 'copy free but encrypted,' 'copy one generation' and 'no more copy or copy never,' respectively, the AN stream is decrypted by different decryption modules 431, 432 and 433, respectively and output via the AN stream-outputting unit 440. That is, the AN stream is decrypted by the first mode decryption module 431 in case of '01,' the second mode decryption module 432 in case of '10,' and the third mode decryption module 433 in case of '11,' respectively, and output via the AN stream-outputting unit 440.
FIG. 5 A shows a flowchart illustrating a data encryption method according to an embodiment of the present invention. In operation 510, contents are received and a CCI code is determined according to information on the contents. In operation 512, the determined CCI code is checked. Where the checked CCI code is '00,' the contents are recorded in a medium, for example, an optical recording medium without being encrypted in operation 518. Where the CCI code is not '00,' an encryption mode corresponding to this CCI code is selected in operation 514. That is, where the code is '01,' '10' and '11,' the first, second and third modes are selected, respectively. After the selection of the encryption mode, an encryption process corresponding to the selected mode is performed on the contents in operation 516 and the encrypted contents are recorded in the medium such as an optical recording medium in operation 518 .
According to an aspect of the present invention, the encrypted contents may be transmitted through a wired/wireless transmission medium to an apparatus for decrypting the encrypted contents instead of recording the same in the recording medium. FIG. 5B shows a flowchart illustrating a data decryption method according to an[other] embodiment of the present invention. A medium, for example, an optical recording medium having data is loaded into an apparatus for decrypting encrypted data in operation 550. In another aspect, data may be received through a wired/wireless transmission medium instead of the recording medium. A CCI code in the data received from the recording medium or through the transmission medium is checked in operation 552. Where the CCI code is '00,' the received contents are directly output as an AN stream without being decrypted. Where the CCI code is not '00,' an encryption mode corresponding to the CCI code is selected in operation 554. That is, where the code is '01,' '10' and '11,' the first, the second and the third modes are selected, respectively. After the selection of the encryption mode, the contents are decrypted according to the selected encryption mode in operation 556 and an AN stream of the decrypted contents is output in operation 558.
FIG. 6 shows the configuration of a data decryption apparatus with three types of 2-bit codes according to another embodiment of the present invention. The data decryption apparatus 600 receives an AN stream 610, and a CCI code checking unit 620 checks a CCI code in the received AN stream. Where the CCI code is '00,' the AN stream is directly output through an AN stream-outputting unit 640 without passing through a decryption module 630. Where the CCI code is one of '01,' '10' and '11,' the decryption module 630 inserts the same code as the CCI code into a most significant bit (MSB) or least significant bit (LSB) of a key code for use in decrypting the contents. Where the CCI code was modified illegally, the contents cannot be decrypted since a key different from a key used for encrypting the contents is created. The AN stream decrypted in such a manner is output through the AN stream-outputting unit 640.
FIG. 7 shows the configuration of a data decryption apparatus using three types of data encryption standard (DES) ciphers according to still another embodiment of the present invention.
A DES cipher is a symmetrical key cipher including encryption and decryption keys. The DES cipher was developed by IBM Corporation in late 1960's and has been adopted as the standard encryption algorithm in 1977. As a result, it is used in a variety of fields including monetary facilities in the world due to its high processing speed. The DES cipher is a symmetrical block cipher that includes a plaintext having a block length of 64 bits, a 64-bit key (in practice, including 56 bits for a key and 8 bits for checking), and a 64-bit cryptogram. In a DES algorithm, a 64-bit plaintext is subjected to a Feistel operation of 16 rounds, resulting in a 64-bit cryptogram.
A double_DES is an algorithm for performing DES twice by using 112 bits of two different 56-bit encryption keys, and a triple_DES is an algorithm for performing DES three times by using 112 bits of two different 56-bit encryption keys.
In the present invention, where the CCI code is '01,' '10' and '11,' a DES decryption module 731, a double_DES decryption module 732 and a triple_DES decryption module 733 of a decryption module 730 are operated, respectively. Keys used in the respective decryption modules 731, 732 and 733 are the same as keys used in encryption.
Although the method of implementing different control modes according to the CCI codes has been described in the present invention, it is understood that other methods may be used to meet a particular method of changing encryption/decryption processes resulting in diversity of security levels such as high, medium and low, and a method of inserting a CCI code into a data area where copy is not permitted, to perform comparison of relevant CCI codes so as to prevent further processing where the relevant CCI codes do not match with each other, or to utilize the inserted CCI code as input data of a key for use in encrypting/decrypting contents.
Industrial Applicablity
According to the present invention, illegal data copying by a third party can be prevented more effectively, and data can be more stably protected according to the importance of the data.
Since those skilled in the art can make various substitutions, changes and modifications to the embodiments of the present invention described above without departing from the technical spirit and scope of the invention, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments illustrated in the drawings.
